Salar de Chiguana

[Manfred M]

This is 14 - image pano of the Chiguana Salt Flats in Boliva.

I didn't have my pano equipment along for the trip due to size and weight restrictions, so I handheld these shots and used the horizon line to guide me between exposures. Like the much larger and better known Uyuni Salt Flats, these are located in a high-altitude depression at around 3680m / 12,100 ft.

This part of the altiplano is much drier than Uyuni, so the salt flats have a much more "typical" look without any surface water.

I think that this is the best image I have seen so far from your trip to Bolivia. I was, seriously, scanning for any 'flaws,' I thought I found one but that was merely an insect.
